Chapter 485: Siege and Help!
At the end of winter and early spring, the south of the Yangtze River is already green grass, but outside the Shanhaiguan is a white snow, in this white snow, a tens of thousands of iron horsemen stepped through the snow, straight to the hundreds of miles outside the Shanhaiguan Jurchen town of Suizhong, in the road of Suizhong and Shanhaiguan, a large number of people pushed a huge carriage to carry bows and arrows, weapons, armor and grain and grass to Suizhong.

There are 60,000 soldiers and horses stationed in Shanhaiguan, and with the Jurchens preparing to capture, Zhao Shu mobilized 30,000 people to enter Shanhaiguan, but this time the troops can only be 50,000, of which 30,000 people need to be deployed in the Shanhaiguan line, and 20,000 people are in response, but the dispatch of these 50,000 soldiers and horses requires 100,000 people to transfer materials and ensure the safety of logistics.
If someone can overlook the entire Great Wall from a high altitude, they will find that on the Great Wall from Shanhaiguan to the land of Hetao, countless iron horsemen of the Great Song Dynasty come and go, and countless soldiers rush to the Jurchen land, and if you calculate carefully, there are hundreds of thousands of troops, and behind the army, nearly a million people come and go to run materials, and inside the Great Song Dynasty, countless large ships transport grain and other materials to Yanjing from the intertwined land, and then carry them to the area along the Great Wall.
In order to deal with this war, the Great Song Dynasty government has been under martial law in various places, as long as there is a trace of public security problems, it will be immediately extinguished, the means are fierce, but at the very time, no one raised any criticism, that is, the most harsh imperial envoy, at this time there are no words, but staring at the material transfer and logistics of the people, because during the war, it is very easy to have civil strife, and the Sui Dynasty is because of the northern expedition to Goguryeo and led to the decline of the powerful Sui Dynasty.
Zhao Shu launched this war, and there are no people in the country who are waiting in secret, waiting for Zhao Shu to repeat the mistakes of the Sui Dynasty.
This war took place in the early spring, when the preparation for farming also made the local government very worried, and it was extremely important to maintain the stability of the territory and maintain the smooth progress of farming.
Fortunately, the Great Song Dynasty has accepted a large number of barbarians over the years, and the most desirable thing is to be a soldier, in order to live in the Great Song Dynasty, obtain the household registration of the Great Song Dynasty, and make the life of the family better, their war demands and desires are also the most powerful, so there are a large number of barbarians in the people who carry the logistics.
Outside the city of Suizhong, Yue Fei personally sat here, tens of thousands of soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty surrounded this city, and around the city, thousands of huge catapults were assumed by craftsmen to surround the entire Suizhong.
In the squeaky sound, pieces of stones the size of a millstone were thrown into the city, like a storm, and the Jurchen defenders in the city did not dare to the Great Wall at all, and although this important town was strong, it was not vulnerable at all under the 50,000 military horses and a large number of puppets and catapults in the Great Song Dynasty, but Yue Fei did not break through the city, but only trapped it firmly, so as to attract the Jurchen defenders from other places to come to the rescue.
"We have besieged Suizhong for three days, according to the Tanma report, Anchang and Xingcheng in the north of Suizhong have sent troops to rescue, and the Jurchen Liao King Wanyan Sai commanded 10,000 soldiers from Jinzhou to the south, will bring Anchang and Xingcheng's soldiers and horses to come, these are cavalry, a total of about 30,000 cavalry, 10,000 foot soldiers, at their speed, two days later, Anchang and Xingcheng's soldiers and horses will reach the Liuzhou River area. In addition to these, Jianchang's Jurchen army also came, there were about 20,000 cavalry and 10,000 foot soldiers, and the Jurchen foot soldiers were very few, so you don't need to think about it to know that those foot soldiers must be chiseled beasts. ”
In the camp, Yue Fei looked at the map hanging on the ground, and immediately said to the generals, his eyes were as resolute as iron, scanning all the generals.
"We besieged Suizhong City to encircle the point to send reinforcements, and now the soldiers and horses in these places have been attracted by us, if we can't annihilate them, it is to surround the point to send reinforcements, but by the Jurchens two bread copy, after all, there are 10,000 Jurchen soldiers and 2,000 chiseled teeth in this Suizhong City, in the face of the army, it is the Jurchen warrior Shi Jianu who guards Suizhong, this person has been holding on, is waiting for the opportunity, so this task is extremely heavy!"
When Yue Fei spoke, the generals didn't say much, just stood with a solemn expression, knowing that the general was going to issue a task.
"Yang Zaixing, I can only give you 20,000 soldiers and horses, you must annihilate these people in the area of the Liuzhou River, remember to annihilate rather than resist, if there is the slightest difference, you will come and see you!"
Yang Zaixing raised his head and said to Yue Fei: "General, don't worry, if you can't completely annihilate these thieves, the last general will come to see you!" When Yang Zaixing said, Yue Fei's eyes looked at Zhang Xian: "There are still six states of the river to defend in the Jinzhou area, but the Jurchen army in Jianchang has no danger to defend this way, I will give you all the cavalry, as well as the eight hundred iron-armored puppets of the Ministry of Heavenly Engineering, two thousand simple puppets, about more than 20,000 people, plus bows and crossbows and gunpowder, and the task for you is also to be completely annihilated." ”
"General rest assured, the last general will definitely live up to his trust!" Zhang Xian strode over and hugged his fists.
"General, the army is all leaving, we only have thousands of foot soldiers here, if the Jurchens in the city rush out, it will be dangerous, and the last general only needs 20,000 soldiers and horses. Do it now!
"We obey!" and the generals departed at once.
Half a day later, Shi Jianu, the Jurchen warrior in Suizhong City, stood on the city pass, looked at the city, and immediately stroked his palms and laughed: "The Song people have divided their troops, we can finally attack!"
"General, didn't the last general see it? The banner of the Song people is here, how can they divide the troops?"
A Jurchen general was a little puzzled, he did not advocate the division of troops, the combat effectiveness of the Song people was obvious to all, and he had never been confident that he could defeat the Song people, especially the tens of thousands of Song elites outside the city.
"Haha, let's go, let's go, those are just false flags, haven't you seen some sparrows enter the camp to forage? Now in early spring, these birds and beasts have recovered, but there is no food, and being able to enter the camp can only mean that their camp is empty!"
When Shi Jianu said, his face was also full of smiles and said: "The Great Song Dynasty sent troops to deal with us, although they were prepared, but they attacked on all fronts, and the turnover of grain and grass materials was serious, the reason why they surrounded us here and didn't kill them was to lure reinforcements, so as to reduce the difficulty of their grain and grass transportation, these people want to divide their troops to fight against those reinforcements, this time I am afraid that it will be impossible to steal chickens and rice, and I will rest for a day today, and send troops immediately tomorrow!"
Shi Jianu laughed, looking at the more than 2,000 monsters under the city tower, and suddenly showed a bloodthirsty color: "Even if the Song people are strong, can they still resist these monsters!" (To be continued.) )
